http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27366 GetMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream() .available() could return content-length Summary: GetMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream() .available() could return content-length Product: Commons Version: 2.0 Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: HttpClient AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] It would be nice if the InputStream returned from GetMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream() could override the available() method to return the content-length of the requested URL. This would make things like ProgressMonitorInputStream useful for monitoring the progress of a download. Here is a code snippet: /** * supply a hard-coded value for available() method. */ class FixedInputStream extends FilterInputStream { private int contentLength; public FixedInputStream(InputStream is, int contentLength) { super(is); this.contentLength = contentLength; } public int available() throws IOException { return contentLength; } } Also, somewhat related to this request, could GetMethod.getResponseContentLength() must be made public? Is there a good reason for it to be protected? I had to extend GetMethod and implement a public getResponseContentLength() in order to feed that value to my FixedInputStream.
